Benefits of technology

[0040] In Table 1, the relative sensibility means an optimal energy (Eop). As shown in Table 1, the chemically amplified photoresist compositions of the present invention prepared in Examples 5-14 have resolutions that are much excellent compared to those of the compositions prepared in the Comparative examples 1 and 2. Accordingly, the fine circuit patterns can be formed even with the exposure light source of 248 nm. As described above, the photosensitive polymer and the chemically amplified photoresist composition according to the present invention has a merit in that the footing phenomenon is not generated even if there is the PED between the exposure process and the PEB process. Also, the photosensitive polymer and the chemically amplified photoresist composition according to the present invention have an excellent resolution even when using the exposure light source of a short wavelength so that the fine circuit pattern can be formed.
[0041] While the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and substitutions can be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as set forth in the appended claims.

Problems solved by technology

Also, the patterns formed by the conventional G-line(436 nm) or I-line(365 nm) exposure process are not stable, and the steep patterns cannot be formed.

Synthesis of poly(HS-co-DEES-co-Styrene-co-CBCPS)

(Formula 1a)

[0024] a) Synthesis of 4-Cyanomethylstyrene(CyMS)

[0025] As shown in the following Reaction 1a, 49.01 g of sodium cyanide (NaCN), 70.07 g of water and 50.96 g of ethanol were added into a 500 ml 4-neck flask equipped with a mechanical stir, and the temperature of the solution was elevated to 60° C. to completely dissolve NaCN. To the solution, 87.50 g of 4-chloromethylstyrene was slowly added and the reaction was carried out for 3 hours at the temperature of 60-70° C. After completion of the reaction, the solution was cooled to 40° C., 100 g of diethylether was added to the solution, and the diethylether layer was separated. The separated organic layer was extracted with 300 g of water three times. The water layer was extracted with 50 g of diethylether and the diethylether extract was added to the organic layer. The separated organic layer was dried with magnesium sulfate for one day, and then the organic solvent was r...

[0031] a) Synthesis of Poly(HS-co-pEES-co-CBCPS)

[0032] As shown in the following Reaction 3a, 200 ml of tetrahydrofuran(THF) was introduced into a 500 ml 4-neck flask equipped with a refluxing cooler, a temperature controlling apparatus and a nitrogen gas introducing apparatus, and was stirred for 30 minutes with introducing nitrogen. To the reactor, 58.39 g of 4-acetoxystylene, 53.83 g of 4-(1-ethoxy)-ethoxystylene, 15.98 g of CBCPS prepared in Example 1(b), and 2.23 g of AIBN as the initiator were added. The temperature of the reactor was elevated to 40° C. and the reactant was stirred for 30 minutes under a nitrogen atmosphere. The temperature of the reactor was then elevated to 60-70° C. and the reactant was stirred for 24 hours under reflux. After completion of the reaction, the temperature of the reactant was lowered to room temperature(25° C.) and the reactant was poured into 2 l of hexane to obtain the precipitat...
